Cut O-rings, washers and thin seals are made by slicing sections from full length coils.

Pressure sensitive adhesive tape is one of the most common attachment methods.

O-Rings Extruded, Spliced, Molded
O-rings are made in three ways:

Precision Cut Tubing (Washers): Extrusions of any circumferential profile are cut to desired thickness. This approach is most practical up to a 1.5” cross section and for economical volume production.

Spliced O-rings: Large diameter O-rings are made by end-to-end splicing of lengths of tubing equal to the desired circumference. Diameters up to 10 ft. are practical.

Molded O-rings: Small to mid-size diameter O-rings up to 6.0” are practical for molding using a dedicated tool, usually associated with higher production quantities.

Other - Splices, Mitres, Assemblies
Extruded profiles can be made into frames and complex assemblies through our splice bonding technology. We’ve done thousands of such treatments and may just have the right idea for your application. Some of the most common are:

Mitre corner frames
Intricate webs
Die-cut notches
Bonding to film
Assembly to your components
Die-cuts from sheets, strips

Color Matching
General color matching can be specified by supplying a color sample or specifying a distinct PMS (Pantone Matching System) number.

Specific color matching commensurate with your end product requirements can be done in the same way, but may require sample testing to attain exactness.
